Cap Dslr
An Slr Camera under $1600?
i want to get a Dslr Camera under $1000 with these requirements:
- it can be an old discontinued camera (some people just can’t understand what i say which is why this is in CAPS) doesn’t have to be new either
- have an ability to change settings quickly (like you just push a button and turn the dial on canon’s Eos Cameras)
- have a status LCD (because its much better to look at a bright three inch screen for 20 seconds)
- any brand
PLEASE THOROUGHLY READ THE DESCRIPTION!
all the camera’s that are new that are under $1000 are terrible, i want something in the middle, like a 40D and it can be used. i don’t need the LATEST. SO STOP ADVISING ME TO BUY Canon Eos REBEL CAMERAS, AND NEW CAMERAS, HOW ABOUT SOME “LAST YEAR” MODELS?
Here’s some discontinued semi-pro options with prices from KEH.com. These guys are 100% reliable: their ratings are conservative (if they say a camera is in Good Condition, it is) and if you need to return something they won’t give you a hard time. B&H also has a good used department. You can find better deals if you look on eBay or Craigslist, of course, and in that case you can use these prices as a guideline.

Any of these options should leave enough cash to get a decent lens or two. Here’s the specs of these cameras side-by-side with links to (dated) in-depth reviews: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/compare_post.asp?method=sidebyside&cameras=canon_eos30d%2Ccanon_eos40d%2Cnikon_d200&show=all
I use a D200 myself. I’m aware that the newer, lower range models have better image quality at high ISO and a few more megapixels, movie mode, etc, but I wouldn’t want to trade.
The solid build quality, weather sealing, and the better control layout are worth more to me. I have my D200 setup to auto-focus with a button under my thumb and lock the exposure with a button under my ring finger. The D200 has a button for bracketing on the body – no need to dive into menus. These little things make it a much more pleasant camera to work with.
